Definitions

• the present invention belongs to the field of cosmetic products and food products and refers to compositions comprising 4-hydroxyacetophenone for stabilizing the taste and/or odor of fatty acids and esters thereo contained in said compositions.
• Fatty acids are the main constituents of oils and fats. They possess a simple structure consisting of a long hydrocarbon chain with about 12-22 carbon atoms and one or more carboxylic (acyl) groups. According to the number of the present double bonds between the carbon atoms fatty acids (esters) are generally divided into saturated, monoun-saturated and polyunsaturated fatty acids (esters). At present most fatty acids (esters) are obtained from natural origin including vegetable and animal origin, such as hard animal fats, coconut oil, palm kernel oil and soybean oil. The most common naturally occurring fatty acids are palmitic, stearic, oleic and linoleic acids.
• esters With the exception of the tropical oils such as palm and coconut oil, the majority of fatty acids (esters) in most plant- and animal-derived oils of commercial significance contain eighteen carbon atoms. Other fatty acids (esters) belong to synthetic compounds obtained from petroleum. Thanks to the beneficial physical and biological properties, the application of fatty acids (esters) is overwhelming.
• Fatty acids are of great importance in cosmetics industry and becoming more and more commonly used components in many cosmetic formulations for daily care of the face, body and hair.
• Naturally occurring fatty acids are components of skin and are components of a complex mixture that makes up the outermost layer. Because of their oiling, softening, smoothing and protective properties, fatty acids (esters) can prevent water loss through the skin, mainly by means of making a protective layer on the epidermis. Additionally, they soften the stratum corneum and reduce inflammation of the skin, thereby weakening the sensation of pain.

• fatty acids also play a key role in food and nutrition industry, because of their biological effects in proper functioning of the human body - in metabolism as major metabolic fuel (storage and transport of energy), as essential components of all membranes, and as gene regulators.
• the edible fatty acids (esters) mostly belong to polyunsaturated fatty acids, which are not metabolically synthesized in mammals and therefore termed as "essential fatty acids”. It has been reported that for human the minimum intake to avoid clinical symptoms of deficiency, taking " ⁇ -3" fatty acids (such as docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) and eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA)) as an example, is approximately 0.5 g per day.
• DHA docosahexaenoic acid
• EPA eicosapentaenoic acid
• oils and fats containing rancid fatty acids cannot be further processed into corresponding end products, and the rancid end products cannot be sold on market or used by the consumer any more. Both of them lead to the increase of production costs, which is unacceptable both by the manufacturer and the consumers.
• the patent application KR 20100105234 reported a composition for preventing rancidity of unsaturated fatty acids, which comprises potassium chloride, potassium carbonate, magnesium chloride, calcium lactate and sodium citrate.
• the international patent application WO 92/22282 disclosed oil components for cosmetic and /or pharmaceutical preparations.
• This published oil components consist entirely or mainly of Guerbet carbonates.
• Such oil components not only have good compatibility with the skin and mucous membrane but are also highly stable with respect to rancidity.
• patent application GB 813, 538 A refers to the use of 5-acenaphthenol as an antioxidant for eliminating the deleterious effects of oxidation and improving the stability of oxidizable compositions including solid fats, fatty oils and so on.
• US 2521856 A provided a new mixture comprising (a) butylated hydroquinone monoalkyl ether wherein the alkyl group contains from 1 to 4 carbon atoms inclusive; (b) hydroquinone and (c) an acidic material selected from the group consisting of citric acid, ascorbic acid, oxalic acid, phosphoric acid, ethyl acid phosphate and triethyl phosphate to improve the stabilization of materials normally subject to oxidative rancidity due to their content of glycerides of fatty acids.
• the subject of WO 2015 144333 A1 is the use of 4-hydroxyacetophenone to achieve or increase the stability of cosmetic preparations which are in the form of O/W emulsions (last paragraph, page 6).
• the term "stability" means that the cosmetic or dermatological active ingredient is protected against chemical decomposition for a longer period of time and/or at higher temperatures and/or at a higher light dose.
• the teaching refers to the stability of complete emulsions with a large number of components, not to the protection of a specific group of polyunsaturated substances.
• fatty acids (esters)-containing composition with stabilized taste and / or odor as well as improved resistance to oxidation and rancidity.
• fatty acids (esters)-containing composition With the utilization of the fatty acids (esters)-containing composition, a more effective storage of fatty acids (esters) as raw materials and longer shelf-life of the end product comprising fatty acids (esters) would be realized, without intentionally decreasing the level of unsaturated fatty acids (esters).
• the new composition shall maintain all the excellent physical and biological properties of the contained fatty acids (esters) and further possess excellent resistance to rancidity.
• the used stabilizing agent contained in the composition should be of defined chemical structure and purity, toxicologically safe in use, well tolerated, effective already at low concentrations, easy to formulate, colorless and odorless.
• the main problem underlying the present invention has been providing a new composition comprising fatty acids (esters), wherein the unsaturated fatty acids (esters) contained still express their original physical and biological properties and are well protected from oxidation and rancidity.
• Another problem solved by the present invention has been providing a new method to preserve unsaturated fatty acids (esters) from oxidation and rancidity.
• a further problem underlying the present invention has been supplying cosmetic and food products with better resistance to rancidity and longer shelf-life.
• Object of the present invention is a composition with stabilized taste and/or odor, comprising
• the amount of 4-hydroxyacetophenone (4-HAP) in the compositions according to the present invention is in the range from about 0.01 to 0.1 and preferably from about 0.01 to 0.05 wt.-percent relative to the total weight of the composition.
• 4-HAP shows a high activity to preserve various mono- or polyunsaturated C 8 -C 22 fatty acids and esters thereof from rancidity than other antioxidants. This was surprising, since 4-HAP is known for exhibiting a much weaker antioxidant activity compared to other conventional antioxidants such as for example alpha-tocopherol,

• the component (b-1) is oleic acid, linoleic acid, ⁇ -linolenic acid, ⁇ -linolenic acid, EPA and DHA.
• Linoleic acid occurs most abundantly in sunflower oil, soybean oil, safflower, corn oil, sesame oil, peanut oil, grape seed oil and wheat germ oil. It is essential to the skin's barrier function. In dry skin it strengthens the lipid barrier of epidermis, protects against transepidermal loss of water and normalizes the skin metabolism. In persons with acne skin, a decrease in linoleic acid content in sebum is observed, which leads to blocked pores and formation of comedos and eczemas. The use of linoleic acid for oily skin and problematic skin care leads to improvement of the work of sebaceous glands, unblocking of pores and decrease in the number of comedos.
• ⁇ -linolenic acid belongs to omega-6 series and can be obtained from natural sources including borage oil, black currant oil, evening primrose oil and hemp oil.
• ⁇ -linolenic acid is a representative of omega-3 group and is found in linseed oil, soybean oil, rapeseed oil, wheat germ oil, walnut oil, and algae and marine phytoplankton. Both ⁇ - and ⁇ -linolenic acids are physiological components of cell membranes or mitochondria membranes in human cells.
